Congressman Floats Bill That Deems Congresspeople Special Citizens

A republican Texas congressman, of all things, has proffered legislation called the “Bill to Enhance Safety and Protection of Members of Congress.”

It will allow members of Congress to carry gun for self-defense “in nearly every conceivable scenario.”

As for us, pffffffffffffffffffffft? We don’t count. We’re not as important.

Wow, I have a line I could use, but I’m afraid it wouldn’t go over well. I would be righteous saying it, but still, I will remain silent and be thought the clever devil, than to open my mouth and be pig-piled on social media.

Breitbart has the story.

  1. Damn, I would love to see President Trump come out and say that he will support legislation that requires congress critters to live under the same laws as what they pass for us. This would be a great opportunity to do so.

  2. Congressmen take care of themselves first and after a few more thousand law abiding citizens are murdered they might think about us……. might.
    How many congressman have been killed in the last 2 decades? How many law abiding citizens have been killed the last 2 decades?
    Where is the urgency for the elite now?

    I’m still pissed I have to pay for a permit to carry and get approval to exercise my Constitutional and God-given right of self protection.

  3. Interesting response by the Democrats. Basically what everyones sentiments are here in regards to a special class. I only see the Dems as helping the Nation Wide Carry.

  4. @BFH – I worded that comment very, very carefully.

    Aside: I’m reminded that I’m acromanic. That’s the opposite of acrophobic, or fearful of heights. I like to walk right up to the edge of a cliff or tall building roof and hang my toes over the edge – but I look up more than down.

  5. Will these “special people” be required to wear special targets on their special clothes, so citizens who do not want to get up close and personal are able to convey their message from a greater distance?

  6. Hey, just a danged minute here: Are those the same Congress critters who are exempt from Commie care? The same Congress critters who have FREE Health Benefits for life? Same folks who voted themselves a 401 rather than Social Security? Same folks who get to fly around in corporate jets with free meals and booze while the rest of us have to fly in a United 737, with a couple hundred others, in a plane only designed for 125? Just wondering.

  7. Same theme, different venue…..It’s the appointed politicians that have placed themselves in a position of ‘better than thou’…..NOT me.

    These self-aggrandizing bastards need to be put in their place…..at any cost!

  8. The little napoleons feeling weezy? WTF if ONE of those congressmen
    had a gun at that practice? You gonna carry that shit in your fag
    baseball uniform?

    Hide it in your jock?

    If you are carrying, and you don’t have a permit, and they don’t
    know you are carrying or suspect?

    Are you carrying a concealed weapon? Or a tool of opportunity?

  9. Capitol Hill is already surrounded by barricades and Schutzstaffel with cameras every 10′. It is an armed camp with more cops per square foot than any other place on Earth. If America were protected as Capitol Hill, the Supreme Court, and the White House, every citizen would have 4 cops surrounding him. Over 2200 officers for 547 Representatives, Senators, and Justices. White House has the SS, both uniform and nonuniform – 6700 +, though I don’t know how many protect the Executive Branch.

    Bunch of fukkin BULLSHIT.
